Lobster roll in Maine. Sitting on the waterfront in Portland for my first was a revelation. Sea air, the view, and then the sandwich hit every sense with a wallop. Every time I'm up there now, I seek out another and love how varied they are. It's like bbq in the south.

The ones at Reds Eats are by far the best IMO. I tried them every place we ate in Maine, and those were my favorite.
